Frequently asked questions
Can I use both products together?
Yes. The delay pedal processes your instrument signal, and its stereo outputs can feed into the monitor's line input (1/4" jack) so you hear your delayed signal on stage. They serve different functions but complement each other in a live rig.
Which is better for beginners?
Neither is ideal for absolute beginners. The delay pedal requires intermediate to professional skill to exploit its three modes and MIDI integration. The monitor requires basic live sound knowledge. Both are marketed for intermediate players and beyond.
What's the key spec difference in size and portability?
The delay pedal is extremely compact (150 × 121 × 59 mm, 600 g) and fits on a pedalboard. The monitor is larger and heavier, designed to sit on a 35mm pole stand, making it less portable but necessary for stage volume and reach.
Do I need a power supply for each?
The delay pedal requires a 9V DC centre-negative PSU (not included). The monitor is active and self-powered via mains AC; you only need to plug it into a wall outlet.
